Please join the Green Party of Brooklyn at a pot luck picnic in Prospect Park! We want to congratulate all our candidates for the time and effort they and their teams spent petitioning to get on the ballot for the November election!
Let’s celebrate, network, and prepare for some serious campaigning into the fall.
Feel free to bring some food or drink to share…..or just bring yourself.

2017 in New York City means local elections, and the Green Party has a slate of candidates who have been committing their lives to social justice, nonviolence, grassroots democracy, and the environment.

This couldn’t be a better year to get our message out, and it all starts with getting our candidates on the ballot.

Are you registered in NYC as a Green voter? We need to get your signature before July 13!Do you have some time to help by making calls or knocking on doors? We could use some more hands, regardless of your registration status!

Please contact us at info@greenpartynyc.org to sign or to help out. Please include your borough/neighborhood for quickest response.

Please join us for our county membership meeting on Tuesday 5/30, 7 PM at The CherryTree (65 4th Avenue). Our agenda will include a vote by Green Party members in City Council District 38 (Red Hook & Sunset Park) to grant authorization to Carmen Hulbert, recent Green and longtime labor organizer, to run as our candidate for City Council.

We will also discuss the GPNY decision to promote the New York Health Bill as our new state-wide issue campaign and how our county can bring awareness about single payer health care to the streets of Brooklyn!

In the meantime, read activist Gabe Evans’ tribute to Green candidate for Public Advocate James Lane.

From an Electoral College built to preserve slavery to broken voting machines foisted on low-income communities of color, the way we count and handle our votes perpetuates racism and oppression. Hear from the front lines of the 2016 presidential recount about how this “Electoral Jim Crow” makes black votes more likely to go uncounted, how this spoiled system scares people into voting their fears instead of their values, and what we can do about it.

Join the Green Party of Brooklyn at the bar to chat local elections, electoral reform, and how to resist the Trump administration while continuing to fight for the positive changes we still need. Our Pub Club hits a different Brooklyn neighborhood every month, and is always a fun time!

The Park Slope Greens organized or participated in some great events and actions this past year. We heard from Black Lives Matter leaders at our Stopping Police Murder forum; recharged our spirits with art and music at our Cultural Tribune; and joined a host of protests and actions opposing fossil fuel infrastructure and supporting social justice. Thanks to those of you who supported our local in these endeavors. Often, we partnered with the Green Party of Brooklyn, our county organization.

An important task for a political party is to have robust, active county organizations, especially as our party enters into a presidential election year.

The coordinating committee of the Park Slope Greens local has voted to scale back on our monthly meetings (second Monday of the month) and to plan and organize programming under the Green Party of Brooklyn. We believe that our current resources are best directed toward building and strengthening our county organization with an eye toward planting the seeds for additional locals throughout the borough to develop.

Although we will not be seeing each other at the Park Slope Methodist Church on the second Monday of every month, there will be numerous actions, events, discussions and street work to do together, including a monthly Green Pub Club at rotating locations throughout Brooklyn; quarterly Green Party of Brooklyn membership meetings with featured programming; and occasional larger events.

Our monthly Green Pub Club is coming up in just a few days!
Monday Jan. 25 beginning at 7 p.m. at Radegast Hall and Biergarten on N. 3rd Street in Williamsburg.

Next Green Party of Brooklyn meeting:
Monday, Feb. 1 beginning at 7 p.m. at the 3rd Ave YWCA near Atlantic Ave
Featuring programming around the push for a just transition to 100% clean energy
